You.

You saw me lost,
Pathetic and helpless,
Just another possibility.

You tried to pick me up,
Just to throw me down again.

I knew the world,
Was coming down,
As I stood and found,
You looking over me.


You,
What did I mean to you,
That you used me,
And threw away.


You,
What would I do to you,
If I get that chance,
Once again.

Maybe I was insecure,
Not knowing what,
A little unsure.

You saw it in my eyes,
Maybe just a slight.

Try and remake me,
Or just to take me,
Led me on,
And got me lost again.


You,
What did I mean to you,
That you used me,
And threw away.

You,
What would I do to you,
If I get that chance,
Once again.


Then, I had you in my headlights.
I thought I'll kill you now,
For what you did to me.

But then I hit reverse,
Turned around and drove away.

Just to watch you,
Dissapear in the rearview,
Before it crossed my mind again.


You,
What did I mean to you,
That you used me,
And threw away.

You,
What would I do to you,
If I get that chance,
Once again.

Something.

Something about,
The look in you eyes.

Something that shows itself,
When the lights are just right.

It reminded me,
That we are alive.

It seems to me,
You are divine.

There's something there,
Something quite unseen,
Everytime I look at you,
Its fascinating.
What you do to me,
Is rehabilitating.

Our biggest fear,
Could be not saving this.

Going away from here,
With a million things to miss.

Something about,
The way you move.

The music is in motion,
The soul in groove.

There's something there,
Something quite unseen,
Everytime I look at you,
Its fascinating.
What you do to me,
Is rehabilitating.

Lost-Paradise City.

A nicotine wish,
A junkies wrath.

Lost their way,
On a dusty path.

Some choose to fight,
Some fall and pray.

Others let go,
Lie down to stay.

A Shadow weaves its way,
Through this city.
No remorse to show,
Surely no pity.
Hard to believe this was once,
The proverbial,
Paradise City.

A confidence man,
Out on a ledge.

A lone assassin,
Looking for revenge.

Feeding on fear,
Makes his job simple.

Growing ever older,
Not without a wrinkle.

A Shadow weaves its way,
Through this city.
No remorse to show,
Surely no pity.
Hard to believe this was once,
The proverbial,
Paradise City.

The immenseness of suffering,
The incalculable value of life.
How easy it is to wash away,
What was once so alive.

A Shadow weaves its way,
Through this city.
No remorse to show,
Surely no pity.
Hard to believe this was once,
The proverbial,
Paradise City.



For those who wonder what this means. Its a song about poverty and the dark underbelly of every city in the world. What lies behind the facade of affluence.

I Wish You Were Here.

I leave my soul to the wind,
Nothing to care,
No fighting from within.

Digging my feet in the sand,
Contemplate where I am,
And where I stand.

The stars fall to the ground,
Not a protest,
Not even a sound.

The world I have forgot,
No reminders of it near.
No battles to be fought,
I wish you were here.

I look towards the sky,
If I were to go now,
A happy man will die.

Looking at lands edge,
The world stands,
Out on a ledge.

No noises, no human screams,
Just me, the silence,
And the world of dreams.

No one stands within my sight,
For once I believe,
The world is set right.

The world I have forgot,
No reminders of it near.
No battles to be fought,
I wish you were here.

Away from bustling sounds,
And inane conversations.
I've found sacred grounds,
Promise of life is here.

I just wish,
I wish you were here.



This song goes out to her. To everyone who I missed when I was on the sandy beaches and inspiration struck.

Tripping.

I will make the people,
So I wont be alone.

Listen in on silence,
Soon I will be gone.

I will stand with eagles,
Pretend that I can fly.

Make my way back down,
Reaching from the sky.

How much difference,
Does it make.
How much patience,
Will it take.
Oh tell me,
How much difference,
Can I make?

I will stare at sunrise,
Until my eyes go blind.

I wont change myself,
I wont change my mind.

I will fight with reason,
Till my will grows weak.

Finding my solitude,
Salvation I will seek.

How much difference,
Does it make.
How much patience,
Will it take.
Oh tell me,
How much difference,
Can I make?

I will sleep on cold sand,
Drifting in the dreams.

Holding on to one hand,
Shifting in my sleep.

I will stand forever,
Looking for the life.

I will win in this race,
Keep my eyes on the prize.

How much difference,
Does it make.
How much patience,
Will it take.
Oh tell me,
How much difference,
Can I make?



P.S.> This post will get auto uploaded when I will be on some beach in Goa. This song comes out from this. Its fitting in context to my plans of what I will do there.

My Sunshine, My Sea.

There's no one left around us,
Coz everyone's so fake.

Everybody's changing,
And everything is so fucked up.

I try to breathe without you,
I cannot move at all.

I hope to stand beside you,
I stumble and I fall.

You can be my sunshine,
You can be my sea.
I will try and save you,
I can set you free.
I'm finding where you are.
The world stands between us,
But I'm not very far.

Everyone is faded,
There's no one who's real.

Making up new faces,
I dont know if they can feel.

I'm losing this without you,
I cannot live at all.

Let my love surround you,
I'm drowning as I fall.

You can be my sunshine,
You can be my sea.
I will try and save you,
I can set you free.
I'm finding where you are.
The world stands between us,
But I'm not very far.




P.S.> My friend pointed out that this song is very similar to Blurry. Its an unintended mistake. I guess that must have been playing in my head. I apologize.

Revolution.

Breaking free of what we,
Always learned.

Try to rise from what you,
Once were.

Blow the lid of from this,
Blasted world

Kill the problem and try to,
Live and learn.

Break the system,
Turn it on itself.
Be the solution,
Take it on your self.
Revolution,
Won't start by itself.
Revolution.

Take a stand for what you,
Believe in.

Make your world from what you've,
Been given.

Try to make some sense of,
Those around you.

Be the change so they will,
Follow you.

Break the system,
Turn it on itself.
Be the solution,
Take it on your self.
Revolution,
Won't start by itself.
Revolution.

I will wait.

Desperation of my life,
Perfectly fitting.

The helplessness I feel,
So frustrating.

I never doubted,
Love's existence.

I only waited,
To show itself to me.

So, I will wait,
Till the world grows old.
I will wait,
Till my dying day.
I will wait,
Till the shadows fade.
Into this darkness,
I will remain.

After all is gone,
When its over.

If I do die alone,
Without a flower.

Will it ever, 
Find its way to me.

Will I ever,
Know the way it feels.

So, I will wait,
Till the world grows old.
I will wait,
Till my dying day.
I will wait,
Till the shadows fade.
Into this darkness,
I will remain.

Questions flowing,
Words misleading.

Finally I can find,
What someone left behind.

An answer to my pain,
Nothing left in vain.

Now, I will wait,
Till I cease to be.
I will wait,
Till love finds me.
I will wait,
Till the light breaks free.
Out of this darkness.
I will arise.
